Ahem, forgot to look into the SMAPS data included into rich-cores. Yes, this crash is definitely in load-applet code as 0x42fa0350 address is where load-applet is loaded. ... 42f9c000-42fa4000 r-xp 1f:04 21551 /usr/lib/hildon-status-bar/libload.so Size:32 kB Rss: 32 kB Shared_Clean: 0 kB Shared_Dirty: 0 kB Private_Clean: 32 kB Private_Dirty:0 kB ... So, if you had load-applet running in Desktop before the crash, you could install the Gtk libgtk2.0-0-dbg package, reproduce your crash and check with Gdb[1] whether it shows something similar. If yes, please complain to load-applet developers: https://garage.maemo.org/projects/load-applet/ Yes, definitely create a ticket there. But I'll be able to check on it only in 2 weeks when I get my laptop. -- Sincerely, Eugene ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

One of the applets crashes hildon-desktop (since they all run in the same process), and hildon-desktop restarts in safe mode with applets disabled. Find out which of the applets causes the problem, file a bug and disable it until that bug gets fixed. Finding the applet to blame will probably involve trial and error (what happens if I disable half of the applets? etc.).

If any one applet crashes it takes down the whole home screen. The system then restarts the home screen in safe mode with all applets disabled to try to avoid the problem. A reboot restarts all the applets. It could be any applet causing the problem. The only way to find it is to remove some applets and see if it recurs. Alternatively you can post your list of applets and see if anyone else has had a bad experience with any of them. Unfortunately, not a very scientific process (it is hard to be sure which applet is really causing the problem, some bugs are quite subtle and may depend on your particular usage and there are different versions of many applets around, with some bugs fixed and new ones introduced). It would be useful to have a debug mode in the desktop process where it would produce a log of interesting events (and all Glib logging messages) and log which library contained the faulting instruction when any signals occur.

Re: All applets dying
I've recently had some sort of email login problems which appear to freeze the tablet for a while, possibly because a timeout somewhere is set too high or something like that. During this time, other processes or apps seem to lock up or slow down. Occasionally, I've had to reboot to clear things up. It seems to happen to both Claws (which downloads about 4 different emails) and the native email program (which downloads my google email). FYI, I still haven't sorted out what the email problem is. It seems to work fine, then not, then ok. It could be a local network or internet issue. It's working fine right now, so I've decided to just ignore the issue.

On the other hand, I run GPE Summary **all** the time, with various options enabled at different times as I test various things and I haven't had a desktop crash for months. But it is worth trying disabling it and see if your crashes go away. By the way, I plan to have a GPE update available in December, which will have a number of bug fixes.
